Upasaka
C.T. Shen, Founder of the Institute for Advanced Studies of World
Religions, headquartered in New York, has generously supported Buddhist
endeavors all over the world for many years. Whenever the Sino-American
Buddhist Association has experienced any difficulty Upasaka Shen has
offered his support. Recently he completely donated the building in San
Francisco, which houses the International Institute for the Translation of
Buddhist Texts.
It
is with great pleasure that the members of the Sino-American Buddhist
Association endorse the appointment of Upasaka Shen as Chairperson of the
Board of Directors of the Vajra Bodhi Sea Publication Society and his
simultaneous appointment to the Board of Directors of Dharma Realm
Buddhist University.
The
entire Association extends congratulations to Upasaka Shen and anticipates
fruitful years of working together to introduce to all countries of the
world the profound and compassionate principles and methods of practice of
the Orthodox Dharma.
